I enjoy every minute of every day that I spend visiting the job
site. Why you may ask? With a job site visit comes dirt,
dust, mud, freezing temperatures (Utah winter's) and more and are not glamorous
at all. Needless to say the Professors leave all of those fun facts
about hauling and schlepping about out of the design curriculum. Well
this is a snippet of the many reasons why. Progress! I get to
experience first hand as the project starts to take shape and the work
progresses. Then comes the exciting part, to visualize the finished
project and the potential that the space has with all new furnishings.
I was so
excited the other day when I met my contractor, Brandon Bodell, at my
clients condo remodel in Park City. I hadn't been up there for a while
and the last time that I was there all walls and such were in tact. Not
so much any more. Demolition has taken place and we have new walls and
new stairs and a ton of areas just waiting for their new skin.
Before: Standing in the living room you look into the dark and closed
off kitchen space (needless to say outdated!) YIKES!
Do
you see that brown wall ladder....do you see it? Can you just say
hazard. I wouldn't want my little one to climb up there to access the
bunk room.
No way.
In Progress:
All horrendous kitchen cabinets and soffit's have been removed.
Look
how much that area has lightened and opened up!
We removed the
half/pony wall on the raised platform and have
added a new staircase to
access the bunk room.
This
project is starting to take shape and moving right along. Within a few
weeks we will be completing all of the construction, cabinetry, tile,
carpet and such and moving the new furniture in.
Stay tuned for the
after shots.......
